PSG sign teenage star Moura

Paris Saint-Germain have signed Lucas Moura from Sao Paulo for a reported fee of 35 million euros.

The Brazilian teenager will move to the Parc des Princes in January.

The 19-year-old has long been linked with a move to Europe, with Manchester United and Inter Milan the long-term front-runners for his signature.

However, it was reported earlier this week that PSG had leaped to the front of the queue for the attacking midfielder by tabling a significant offer, and the Ligue 1 outfit confirmed on Wednesday that a transfer had been agreed.

A statement on the club’s official website read: “Paris Saint-Germain and Sao Paulo FC have reached today an agreement for the definitive transfer of Lucas Rodriguez Moura Da Silva.

"The player and Paris Saint-Germain have also signed an agreement from January 2013 to July 2017. The player will join Paris Saint-Germain and his new team-mates in January 2013 for the second half of the season 2012/2013.

"By signing a young talent of the quality of Lucas Rodriguez Moura Da Silva, Paris Saint-Germain is already preparing the future."
